South- wind You picked her up in Jacksonville And left me cold and lonesome in the  rain South- wind You took her off to Nashville Left me chokin' in the smoke behind the  train And you go  whoooo-wooo-hoo She's gone a- gain on the South- wind. Southwind I need a forty-dollar ticket And about this time tomorrow I'll be gone Southwind But if I had forty dollars I would by myself a smile to carry on And you go whoooo-wooo-hoo She's gone again on the Southwind. Southwind Take her fast and take her far 'Cause that's the way she always likes to go Southwind I will be waitin' for the round trip If you'll bring her back and I done told her so Don't you go whoooo-wooo-hoo She's gone again on the Southwind.
